This lesson discusses the Arabic numeral system and introduces the students to place value. There is lots of opportunity for discussion on how to represent numbers before introducing a place value table that can help for numbers in any base. Continues onto placing numbers on a number line where you can explore differing intervals. Adapted using resources from WR maths and my own input.

An activity to consolidate inverse functions work after students have learned about them. Includes variation on similar functions so the answers are not obvious to the students.

Introduces the <, >, =, ≤, ≥ and ≠ to students. Lots of afl for comparing numbers as well as worksheets for students. Use of WR maths resources and other bits found online as well as my own input.

Two 3D co-ordinate lessons taught to middle set year 10 students. The first build up slowly and includes a powerpoint I found that illustrates 3D co-ordinates with animations effectively. Worksheets embedded. Any feedback is appreciated! Thanks

Full lesson on significant figures. We look at why we use significant figures in real life situations (newspapers) and how we would round to 1/2/3 sf.

Introduction to solving equations with one and two step equations being used. Builds up slowly and can be used to clear up misconceptions. Used with a mid-ability year 10 class all taking foundation. Any feedback apprieciated! Thanks!

This lesson looks at the commutative and associative laws of addition, different strategies of how to complete additions and subtraction efficiently (partitioning, compensating etc.) as well as fact families for addition and subtraction. Uses resources from WR maths as well as my own input.

This lesson looks at: short division long division division using factors (including worksheet) Resources from WR Maths, other online places and my own input used.

This lesson looks at the place value of decimals, how to write and say them, and placing them on a number line. Use of WR maths resources, other resources found on line and my own input.

Lesson on solving equations that include fractions and decimals including starter that builds on solving 1 and 2 step equations. Originally taught to a mid-ability year 10 class Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

Introduction to rearranging formulae. Two notebooks. Rearranging formulae - intro for low ability, will then be able to move to the second notebook Rearranging formulae 2 - can be used as an intro for a higher ability group.

Lesson focussing on rearranging equations where the coefficient of x is greater than 1 whilst providing links to solving equations for students to link back to previous lessons.

This full lesson covers solving equations involving brackets and when there is an ‘x’ on both sides. First taught to a mid-ability year 10 class but can be easily adapted to your classes needs. Thanks

Introduction to area of a circle. BUilding up finding the area using squares before moving onto using Pi

Smart notebook using co-ordinates and finding the midpoint of a line segment.

Rearranging formulae including indicies. Linking back to solving equations for extra scaffolding.

Full lesson that goes through rounding to 1, 2, 3 and 4 d.p. as well as when and how to use rounding effectively. Links to real life situations such as timing at the OIympics

This lesson starts with a recap of the nth term rule and then links this to linear graphs. It is quite an abstract connection and would work better with higher ability groups but can work equally well with lower ability groups if provided with extra scaffolding.
